the last thing I will say is that "cozy games" have fucking nothing to do with any of this, and resurrecting that discourse for cheap shots is deeply stupid

today's article, above all else, is a very sad story about mismanagement, miscommunication, and the inherent precarity of being a freelancer in this industry. the way the article frames these issues is astonishing

I've been having long payout wait periods on itch since I started making games in 2020. not only was this a known issue for MOST creators, the decision to report on it amidst Collective Shout's attempt to destroy the platform was ridiculous

I will CONTINUE to criticize their publication for this irresponsible article which frames itch's long payout times as a byproduct of "platform" instability following the de-indexing crisis

Game designers are experiencing persistent payout issues from itch.io
The indie platform’s payout delays are a symptom of a bigger issue.

their total inability to contextualize information outside of their sources means that they will occasionally mislead the public or adopt a deeply inflammatory framing that is *damaging* to their credibility

i think Rascal has some deep issues that actually harm its ability to cover major stories. I do not like that they're so central to industry news

Five creators who worked on Yazeba's Bed & Breakfast have spent the past year fighting a legal battle against Possum Creek Games and Steve Jackson Games. Neither the tabletop RPG nor their working relationships survived the fallout.
Battle over Yazeba’s Bed & Breakfast contracts leaves the book, relationships, torn apart

I wrote an article for @readlux.bsky.social about my time at the Tom of Finland Foundation and the complexity of Tom's legacy.

i've been reading this serial called good trans news and it's been scratching a very specific itch. a dystopian near future UK where trans people are institutionalized, and how people are complicit and people fail us, with very few willing to stand up for us. funny, a little campy, sometimes bloody

please if people can share this around i would appreciate it.
maybe if it gets enough support it will get Steam to take harassment seriously.
if anyone can help 🙏

idk what to do because this means if i have my games on Steam, Steam will not do anything about harassment.
the Steam team responded to my support request and said they will not remove the review calling me a liar and ridiculing my sexual assault because of censorship concerns.
steamcommunity.com/profiles/765...
if Steam refuses to enforce their community guidelines and allows harassment, what can i do?
